JBG artist Sarah McKenzie most recent series of paintings, based on the gridded windows of the abandoned Gates Rubber Factory in Denver, are included in an upcoming group show, co-curated by Nora Abrams, of MCA Denver, and Jacob Proctor, of the Aspen Art Museum. The exhibition, titled Continental Drift, opens at MCA Denver next week, on Friday, July 13th, and will run through September 23rd. The show will then travel to Aspen, where it will open in October.
Continental Drift brings together the work of seven Colorado artists, each exploring the idea of place in very different ways, ranging from studies of historical sites to reflections on contemporary ruins, from examinations of intimate personal spaces to conceptualizations of place itself. The artists included in this exhibition are Christina Battle, Scott Johnson, Jeanne Liotta, Sarah McKenzie, Adam Milner, Yumi Janairo Roth and Edie Winograde.
Opening alongside is the exhibition Real Estate: Properties & Other Listings, including the work of the artist collective Tercerunquinto, made up of the artists Julio Castro, Gabriel Cázares and Rolando Flores of Mexico City. Tercerunquinto makes small changes in the fabric of a city that reveal what might otherwise remain unseen, calling attention to relationships between a city and its citizens, an artist and an artwork, and a museum and its patrons.
